Day of Success for "Old Hay teed" Is Not Far Distant, He Declares. , SpocUl to The Observer. RllCh, Oct. 8. "If the farmer kepa a tiff upper Up and holds his cotton, ho on disputes that he can get a hlffher price than It is brlnrlng , In the market today." says Major W. A. Graham, commissioner of agricul ture In an Interview today on the "Cotton- Association and the Ware hoUMS." In the statement the com missioner says: "This U an age of co-operation; tho buslneM that uttempts to go it ulone Is at the mercy of divergent interests who combine. The farmer Is almost alone In being to u large extent In an individual content. The effort to ef fect the. organization or cotton farmers in the association and warehouse or ganization Is an endeavor to get the farmers to co-operate especially in the sals of the crop. "In the earlier days of the Farmers' alliance It was said that the farmer would never have any money until ha raised something to seil. The far mer acknowledged the truth of the assertion and largely Increased his drops, in' many Instances doubling the number of bales. The cotton buy ers' reply was, 'You have made top much,' and although the farmer has these large amounts of produce he could not use it as security to abtain money to settle his debts incurred in making the crop. "The thinking farmer then conclud ed that deliverance woti;d only come when he made the.surplus needed for operation himself and not endeavor to raise cotton to purchase them. The financial, measures provided by Mr. McAdoo enable the farmer to use his crop as security to obtain cash. Rais ing his own supplies has enabled him to hold his cotton for the past two years, and he can hold it. if desired, another year, as food crops for man and beast are being gathered for an other year. He Is more independent than he has been since the Con fed- j erate war. The amount of cotton in sight for supply of goods to the world is not adequate for the purpose. If the farmer will keep a stiff upper lip and hold his cotton, no one disputes that he can get a higher price than It is bringing In the market at this time. The financial measures of Mr. Mc Adoo or anyone else can benefit no I one who goes to market with the question, 'What will you give m for my cottonr- ana not with, a dokx lace saying, 'I will take it hi cents for my cotton,' and then hold until he sets It "The farmers beat the Jute bagging trust by not buying their goods; they lost money when they used cotton bag ging, but bore tho loss like men until the sugar sacks became available. It was really the sugar sack and not rot- ton bagging that defeated the nefa rious proposition of the Jute baggers. "I think the question of producing and selling cotton profitably will be Therefore, quit you like men. Be strong and the victory is nigh. Pro duce all you can of the provisions needed for your family and home. Do not put all the suffering and self denial on your wife; supply her with conveniences and help her in her work. Show that you are worthy of the sores of 1861-65, and u brighter day will dawn and develop into pros perity Old Hayseed and his family. When the farmer prospers the whole country flourishes, as he is four-fifths of it, and when he is in adversity, the land mourns."

It Is asserted that the situation had gone so far that the American gov ernment, early in September, sent a formal note to the Japanese govern ment n. which It was pointed out that the Japanese troops had failed to pro tect the lives and property of tho railroad engineers and had failed to co-operate with them In the broad spirit of conducting the railroad In the interest of the Russian people, by permitting the transportation of food supplies which were so necessary to the Russians.

It referred to the new Idea of internat'onal coop eration throURhout the world, as against the old idea of the balance of power, and is said inferentialiy to have voiced the fear that lack of co operation by Japan might lead to the impression that Japan was support ing the o'd Ideas of self-interest and aggrand'zement, whicn it was conn dejitly hoped the world had abandon ed.
